For many of us, home entertainment isn't confined to the den or family room anymore. It's anywhere there's an available wall outlet. You might have a TV and VCR in a bedroom, and maybe even a secondary satellite receiver, too. Those components need to be protected from power surges, just like in your main system. Otherwise, when a surge hits, it can damage the sensitive circuitry inside these components. And, if they're connected to your main system, a surge can easily travel to it and cause significant damage.Plug your A/V components into HTS 200, including your VCR, satellite receiver and TiVo DVR, and consider them well protected by Monster's SurgeGuard circuitry. SurgeGuard delivers high capacity protection (1680 joules) against performance-damaging power surges and spikes. The HTS 200 also prevents power disturbances from traveling down coax and phone connections to other home theater components in your system. In the event of a damaging power surge, Monster's Dual Mode Plus protection circuitry automatically disconnects your HTS 200 from the AC power and sounds an alarm to let you know that it protected your equipment. The HTS 200 also features Stage 1 Clean Power filters, which prevents AC power pollution from degrading performance so you can enjoy better sound and picture.From protection to performance, the compact, affordable HTS 200 delivers it all.

This is a great addition for your wall-mounted HDTV and increase the picture quality with its power filtering technology (if you can tell the difference because I can't). However, it is good to have it as a surge protector at the very least to protect your investment. Amazon offers a great price of $34.99 where Best Buy has the same item for $60. Depending on the type of wall-mount you have, an obstacle you might encounter is that you'll find it sticking out too much and interfere with the power cable connector that your HDTV comes with. This may end up causing you to spend a little more money to purchase a new power cable with a flat-end connector. I ended up purchasing the "Acoustic Research FS803 Flat Series Power Cord" from Amazon to replace the original power cable my HDTV came with and it works great.

This product was the ticket! The space behind the television was tight. Was half the price of CC and received free shipping.

Yup, no installation instructions. However, this product installs the same way as many other outlet-mounted surge protectors. Remove the screw from the outlet cover, insert the Monster unit into the two outlets, and screw the Monster unit down. The screw creates a more secure mount and reliable connection.

The product was easy to install and meets my need well for a surge protector for my DSL line, DSL modem, and wireless router. I think this is the least expensive Monster unit that has phone line protection. I plan to buy another for my phone line, phone and answering machine.

Good pricing and quick delivery from Amazon. Froogle search shows me that this product is currently available on-line without packaging and, as a result, without warranty for about $20. I'm not that brave, not knowing if the $20 unit is a knock-off copy. I'm willing to spend the extra $15 to get warranty and fast delivery / no tax / free shipping. Thanks, Amazon.

This little monster is just what I needed. Nice quality and easy to install. I have equipped my whole house with surge protection. This Mp-HTS-200 is protecting my phone and 13" flat screen in the kitchen.

Perfect for flat screens hanging on the wall or from the ceiling. Small, compact protection at an exceptionally reasonably price!
